Aerial · Ground · Original Score
Shot from above. Scored from scratch.
We fly, film and compose. Drone and ground cinematography for brands, venues and landscapes, finished with music written for your cut and nobody else’s.
What we do
One crew, picture and sound.
Most productions hire a drone pilot, a camera team and a composer separately, then hope it all fits together. We plan the shots and the music together, so the camera moves and the score land on the same beat.
UP TO 120 M AGL · 5.1K RAW
Aerial

GIMBAL · DOLLY · HANDHELD
Ground

Selected work
Recent work.
Each film was shot and scored by the same team.
Original music
The score is written to the cut.
We start composing at the storyboard, not after the edit. The camera move that crests a ridge gets the chord change. The FPV dive gets the drop. The music is timed to the picture because it was written for it.
You get a full mix, separate stems, and 15, 30 and 60 second cut-downs, with a licence that covers broadcast, web and social.
| Cue | In | Picture | Music |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1M01 | 00:00:00 | Dawn, slow rise over fog | Low strings, Dm |
| 1M02 | 00:00:41 | Drone crests ridge | Shift to F major |
| 1M03 | 00:01:12 | Ground: hands on rope | Piano motif enters |
| 1M04 | 00:02:05 | FPV dive to river | Full ensemble, 72→96 BPM |
How a project runs
Brief to final mix.
Most projects take two to four weeks from first call to delivery, depending on locations, weather windows and how much music the film needs.
Brief
We talk through the story, the audience and where the film will be shown.
Plan
Shot list, flight permissions, a weather window, and a musical sketch to set the tone.
Shoot
Aerial and ground units on the same day, with one look agreed in advance.
Edit & score
The edit and the music develop together. You review both in one link.
Deliver
Graded masters, social cut-downs, music stems and your licence.
After delivery
Footage that keeps working.
One shoot can promote your business for months. Every delivery comes with files sorted for where you’ll use them, a clear licence, and ideas to get the most from them.
